how do I update? As I do not wish to go back to a fresh install each time I download from Github

@fsurfer , you can update in one of two ways.  For both, first follow these steps:

a. Download the zip file from GitHub.
b. Open the downloaded zip file, and remove the "-master" from the end of the folder name inside the zip file. Press Enter so that all of the files inside the zip file are updated with the new folder name.  So, instead of "skin.amber-master", the folder inside the zip file should be "skin.amber".

Then, you can either:

1. Unzip the contents of the file to your <userdata>\addons\ folder, which should overwrite you current skin.amber folder.  Please ensure that you select Yes when asked to overwrite the files.  

Or

2. Close the zip file, start Kodi, go to Addons, Add-on Browser, Install from Zip file.  Browse to where you downloaded the zip file from GitHub, and select the zip file.  This should update Amber, even if you do not see that the version number is different.

Please let me know how it goes.  Thanks.

Oh wow, I do it a little differently. But I'm gonna try this way next time. Thanks for these instructions
